Chapter 595: Harbor Malicious Intentions [Five Updates]
In fact, as soon as Elder Yin began to speak, Jing Yan was almost certain that Mr. Yin, the Dark Night Leader of Lanqu County whom he had killed, had some connection with the Elder Yin in front of him.
"The person you killed was called Yin Jiu, one of my subordinates." Elder Yin’s eyes flashed sharply, and his imposing aura suddenly surged forth, pressing against Jing Yan.
Jing Yan’s eyebrows twitched slightly, and his eyes narrowed as he looked at Elder Yin.
"Elder Yin, you’re mistaken on a couple of counts. First, I didn’t know that Mr. Yin was your subordinate. Second, he tried to kill me first; I was merely defending myself." Jing Yan shrugged his shoulders lightly, effortlessly deflecting the aura Elder Yin had released.
Seeing that Jing Yan could so calmly deflect his own pressure, a flash of surprise briefly crossed Elder Yin’s eyes.
This Jing Yan might be even more troublesome than he had imagined!
"Alchemist Jing Yan, don’t worry, we’re not here to settle accounts with you. I simply hope you’ll consider my proposal for a partnership," Gu Xinghe said, quickly softening his sharp gaze and speaking with a smile.
"Young Master Gu, I’m sincerely sorry, but I’m powerless to help with your proposition," Jing Yan refused.
"Oh?" Gu Xinghe seemed genuinely surprised.
Looking over the entire Heavenly Origin Continent, it was rare to find anyone who dared to refuse him, Gu Xinghe.
Jing Yan smiled as he observed Gu Xinghe.
Inside Pill Country, he didn’t believe that Gu Xinghe would dare lay a hand on him. Even outside Pill Country, it was unlikely that Gu Xinghe would dare to take any overt action against him.
